Sandbox - 8jan19

[Get ready for President Trump's speech from the Oval Office tonight in which he'll try to convince us that there is national security crisis on our southern border, and that spending money to reduce border porosity is now a national priority which the Constitution allows, nay, requires him to exercise executive powers to defend America against an unending influx of poor, ignorant, and destitute foreigners who are told they have the right to illegally enter the country and establish a new life in America. gjr]

The Titanic was unsinkable right? Trump is taking water by the day and supporters like you are doing the Republican Party a disservice by being apathetic. Of course you were playing with your lizard while the California Republicans became an extinct species so you have no track record in this matter.

Yes indeedy... right now it's Bad Boy Trump vs. unscathed ideal Democrats selling perfumed and multicolored Unicorn farts. Let's see the polls after they all look like they've been fighting tooth and nail with unrestrained bloodthirsty chimpanzees, which is what they'll be doing until the Democratic Convention of 2020 settles on a wiener (very sic).

Paul Emry 1218. The ship is fine. No water being taken on. In fact the ship is the best it has ever been. Your fantasy make you a true phony-baloney "newsman". You believe your own fabrications. As I said, Fidel would be proud of you. Mayne even his brother.

You're right Fish they don't mean anything. The Republicans are delusional about Trump. That's why they lost 40 seats in the House and are extinct in California and down to only 7 House seats. That's not a typo-7 house seats.

You'd better believe that Republican pollsters are taking those numbers very seriously.

Trump is a slugger with a strong chin but no defense. they always wear down eventually especially in their later years. Trumps defensive tactic is to lie and the Circle of Jerks at RR are evidence that that defense works for them but they are a minority of voters and are shrinking daily as today's polls indicate. Look out, k.o. is coming and the out of shape and overweight slugger will fall hard in an orange blob.

Thought I was done for today but this is too good to pass up about the phony Libertarian Republican RAnd Paul:

"The Louisville Courier Journal reports that Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), a libertarian who in the past has compared Canadian-style single-payer health care systems to “slavery,” will be traveling to Canada later this month to get surgery on a hernia.

The Courier-Journal discovered that Paul is scheduled to have a hernia operation at the Shouldice Hernia Hospital in Thornhill, Ontario next week, according to documents filed in the senator’s civil lawsuit against a neighbor who attacked him last year and left him with six broken ribs and a bruised lung."

Here is a quote from Paul:

“With regard to the idea whether or not you have a right to health care… It means you believe in slavery,” Paul said back in 2011. “You are going to enslave not only me but the janitor at my hospital, the person who cleans my office, the assistants, the nurses… you are basically saying you believe in slavery.”

As we speak Trump is further declining in the RCP consensus polls. He's now down to -13.6 Down a half point since this morning. Starting to look like a free fall. Todd and Gregory's favorite poll, Rasmussen has Trump down by 12, their worst rating for the Trumper since Nov of 2017. Trump's shutting down the government is only going to continue his decline.

Nothing……but it's your go to phrase ("I didn't vote for Obama the second time Todd!" He says in a tone of righteous Punchy brand indignation) for exonerating yourself when something stupid is done or said by a pol who you support or at one time supported!

The technical acumen of a very small part of the Canadian Health Care system while surprising isn't completely unheard of! I can only assume that they got good at correcting hernias in spite of the system not because of it!

“We will vigorously oppose any legislation that: (1) rolls back existing environmental, health, and other protections, (2) protects fossil fuel and other dirty energy polluters from liability, or (3) promotes corporate schemes that place profits over community burdens and benefits, including market-based mechanisms and technology options such as carbon and emissions trading and offsets, carbon capture and storage, nuclear power, waste-to-energy and biomass energy.”

As Roger Pielke Jr. comments, this is like wanting action on disease but opposing vaccines.

Punchy, no, you cannot assume that, and I don't think the GOP is looking backwards at the Nov'18 election while spoiling for the fight ahead. There'll be one or two SCOTUS nominations to scrap over and the cockfights masquerading as the Democratic Primary to watch.

Poetic justice.https://dailycaller.com/2019/01/14/activists-pelosi-mansion-wall/
"During one part of the video, Loomer could be seen marching to the door of Pelosi’s mansion, demanding she be let in to make a “sandwich” with the other illegal aliens. Loomer found the door to be locked and complained that it was “hypocritical” of Pelosi to not have “open doors and borders” to her own property."
